has a new, state-of-the-art magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
machine. The 3T (or 3 Tesla) MRI machine creates sharper images
than earlier models and will allow the hospital to offer new
imaging procedures. Previously, patients from Newton and
surrounding counties might have had to drive up to an hour to
access this technology that is now available at Piedmont Newton. We
are excited to bring this leading-edge technology to people in our
community, said Lindsey Petrini, CEO of Piedmont Newton. This
equipment supports our goal to offer the latest imaging technology
for patients so they can receive the care they need close to home.

imaging offerings to include prostate imaging procedures. With this
top-of-the-line equipment, we will be able to produce clearer
images more quickly, meaning faster diagnosis and reduced wait
times overall for patients, said Lisa McWilliams, director of
Imaging Services at Piedmont Newton. It also allows us to do scans
that patients had previously been sent to Athens or Metro Atlanta
to receive. RESPONSIBLE FOR: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
